Description
Critic is a specialized tool that provides a narrative view of code changes, specifically tailored for work produced by coding agents. This platform is designed to enhance the understanding of code modifications by offering a comprehensive view of changes, even when the authoring devices are offline. Critic ensures that session transcripts remain on the machine that created them, maintaining privacy and security.

The tool operates by allowing exactly one connected device to own a question at a time. If a device is lost, it returns its work after 45 seconds without losing the thread, ensuring continuity in the workflow. Questions asked from a change page are queued for the author’s coding agent, rather than assuming the machine is online, which enhances flexibility and efficiency.
Critic's short lease feature allows any connected author device to claim the work, while the original coding session remains the source of context. This functionality is particularly beneficial for teams working in distributed environments, where devices may not always be online simultaneously.
Overall, Critic is designed to facilitate seamless collaboration among coding agents, providing a robust solution for understanding and managing code changes effectively.
